8th Sunday after Pentecost - July 19th, 2026
Joy is one of our favorite feelings. We spend so much of our time finding things to fill us with more joy. But when life is hard and bad times come, joy can be hard to come by. Yet James tells us we can consider those moments to be pure joy. How? The joy James is talking about runs deeper than emotions. It lives within us and is connected to Christ, and that means joy is ours even when we don't feel joyful.
